Dear Zaica,
The words that come to my mind right now are ‘It happens only in India’:-)
Almost every family here, has a drama at home, esp. when it’s a joint family. I feel sorry for all the drama you had to go through from your in-laws.
I will share a lesson I have seen learnt in a hard way – Always do what you want for your life.
Excerpts: I have seen guys getting married often for the sake of their parents. And I have also seen them suffer too much and waste precious years of life after all the drama that occurs later.
It’s good that your family is supportive of you; but you’re not a child who needs directions from them to do and not do certain things. Aah, I remember a phrase I had read somewher..’Figure out what you want, and know how to ask for it’. See if it helps. Please pardon me if any of my words have hurt you or if I have been rude in my post.
And my dear, just prayers don’t help. Remember? ‘God helps those who help themselves’.
You’re listening too much on what others want you to do with your life; I would say, stand up for yourself and take a call.
Love and light to you dear!
